Nunnery Lane, Woodmancote, Dursley, GL11

Hillswood House occupies a truly special position at the end of a quiet country lane in Woodmancote, enjoying an elevated setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside towards Cam Peak, Cam Long Down and beyond. Coming to the market for the very first time since it was built in the 1960s, this substantial detached home offers flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, alongside a generous paddock, stabling and grounds extending to just under two acres.

Approached via a large private driveway providing generous parking, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy while remaining within easy reach of the amenities and facilities of Dursley town, as well as the plentiful footpaths and bridleways through nearby woodland.

A covered entrance porch opens into the ground floor where limestone flooring creates an attractive first impression. This floor offers versatility and includes a double bedroom, ideal for guests, dependent relatives or home working. There is also access to the integral double garage, complete with power and lighting, together with a substantial workshop and coal store.

Stairs rise to the principal living accommodation on the first floor, where underfloor heating in the main reception rooms can be found.The spacious, double-aspect sitting room is flooded with natural light and enjoys views to both the front and rear. French doors open directly onto the garden, while an open coal fire with a back boiler provides a welcoming focal point during the cooler months.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well proportioned and fitted with an extensive range of storage cupboards and generous preparation space. Adjoining the kitchen is a large utility room with sink and ample room for appliances, creating a practical everyday space with direct access to the garden. Also on this floor is a further double bedroom served by an adjacent wet room, providing additional flexibility for multi-generational living if required.

The second floor is home to the principal bedroom, a particularly attractive room with direct access onto a generous balcony. Large enough to accommodate a bistro table and chairs, it provides the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or take in the evening sunset whilst appreciating the exceptional outlook. A further bedroom and a family bathroom complete this floor.

Outside, the gardens have been thoughtfully arranged and enjoy a high degree of privacy. There are areas of patio, lawn and established borders, together with productive vegetable and fruit growing areas, a garden shed and gated access into the adjoining paddock.

The paddock itself is fully enclosed and benefits from independent access via a five-bar gate. Bordered by woodland and complete with a single stable block and hardstanding, it offers excellent potential for a variety of uses, whether for equestrian interests, small livestock, or those seeking a lifestyle property with space to enjoy the outdoors.
